In June 2021, President of the Parliament of Montenegro Aleksa Bečić started the initiative for organizing local elections in 17 or 18 municipalities in the same day in 2022.[1]
President of Montenegro, Milo Đukanović, set elections for 26 January 2022 in Berane and for 27 March Ulcinj.[2] On 4 February Montenegro Parliament changed the law for elections in municipalities with the goal that all elections are going to be held on one day,[3] but president Milo Đukanović did not support this change.
President Đukanović set early elections in Tivat and Budva[4][5] as well as regular elections: in Žabljak and Plužine for 5 June;[6] elections in Bijelo Polje and Šavnik for 12 June;[7] and elections in Bar, Danilovgrad, Kolašin and Podgorica for 19 June.[8]
After the new governing majority (DPS, URA, BS, SD and SNP) was formed, they gave initiative to shift elections in 14 municipalities for 23 October.[9]
Šavnik elections were particularly noteworthy due to a high amount of incidents and so called "Election Tourists" on the election day which prompted them to organize repeat elections the following Sunday. However, that one was also rendered invalid due to a large amount of incidents. This continued on for several more weeks before the municipal electoral body gave up and didn't organize any further repeat elections.[13][14][15][16][17] As of December 2023, no outcome has been reached, and the pre-election government remains in power.
